< Isaiah 28 >
1 Woe to! [the] crown of pride of [the] drunkards of Ephraim and a flower withering [the] beauty of splendor its which [is] on [the] head of a valley of fatness [those] struck down of wine.
Madichon pou gwògmann ki alatèt peyi Efrayim lan! Pouvwa yo ap fini tankou bèl flè ki te nan kouwòn yo te mete sou tèt yo a. Madichon pou bèl kapital k'ap deperi sou tèt mòn kote li dominen bon venn tè ki nan plenn lan! Madichon pou nou tout ki anba gwòg nou!
2 There! a mighty [one] and a strong [one] [belongs] to [the] Lord like a storm of hail a tempest of destruction like a storm of water mighty overflowing he will thrust [it] down to the ground with a hand.
Seyè a gen yon moun ki gen fòs, yon moun ki gen pouvwa pou fè travay la pou li. L'ap vini tankou yon gwo lapli k'ap tonbe fòs avès, k'ap fè dlo moute anvayi toupatou. L'ap pran tout bagay nan men l', l'ap leve yo. l'ap fese yo atè.
3 With feet they will be trampled [the] crown of pride of [the] drunkards of Ephraim.
Li pral pilonnen anba pye li sa ki te fè lògèy gwògmann yo, chèf peyi Efrayim yo.
4 And it will be a flower withering [the] beauty of splendor its which [is] on [the] head of a valley of fatness like an early fig before summer which he will see the [one who] sees it while still it [is] in hand his he will swallow it.
Bèl kapital chèf sa yo pral fini kraze sou tèt mòn kote l'ap donminen sou bon venn tè ki nan fon an. Enben, yo pral disparèt tankou premye fig frans mi ki parèt nan sezon an. Wè yon moun wè l', l'ap pran l', l'ap manje l'.
5 In the day that he will become Yahweh of hosts a crown of beauty and a diadem of splendor for [the] remnant of people his.
Jou sa a, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a pral tankou yon bèl kouwòn flè pou rès moun ki pa mouri yo, yon bèl kouwòn dyaman pou sa ki chape yo.
6 And a spirit of justice for the [one who] sits on judgment and strength [those who] turn back battle [the] gate towards.
L'a fè moun ki chita nan tribinal yo gen bon konprann pou yo pa fè lenjistis. L'ap bay sòlda yo fòs pou yo ka kilbite lènmi yo lòt bò pòtay lavil la.
7 And also these with wine they reeled and with strong drink they staggered priest and prophet they reeled with strong drink they were confused from wine they staggered from strong drink they reeled in the vision they tottered decision.
Ata pwofèt yo ak prèt yo, yo sitèlman sou, y'ap titibe. Yo sitèlman bwè diven ak gwo gwòg fò, y'ap di betiz, y'ap depale. Pwofèt yo twò sou pou yo konprann anyen nan vizyon Bondye ap fè yo wè. Prèt yo ap depale, yo pa konn sa pou yo di lè moun vin mete yon ka devan yo.
8 For all [the] tables they are full vomit filth not room.
Yo vonmi sal tout tab kote yo chita a. Pa gen yon ti kote ki pa sal.
9 Whom? will he teach knowledge and whom? will he make understand [the] message [those] weaned from milk [ones] removed from breasts.
Y'ap pale sou mwen, y'ap di: Ki moun l'ap moutre tout bagay sa yo? Ki moun l'ap fè konprann sa Bondye fè l' konnen an? Gen lè se pou timoun ki fèk sevre, timoun ki fèk kite tete?
10 For command to [the] command command to [the] command line to [the] line line to [the] line a little there a little there.
Tankou pwofesè lekòl, l'ap repete lèt apre lèt, liy apre liy, leson apre leson.
11 For by stammerings of lip and by a tongue another he will speak to the people this.
Si yo pa koute m', Bondye pral voye yon bann moun k'ap pale yon lòt lang yo p'ap konprann menm pou pale ak yo.
12 Whom - he said to them this [is] the resting place give rest to the weary and this [is] the place of rest and not they were willing to listen.
Se li menm ki te ban nou yon kote pou n' poze kò nou, yon peyi kote tout moun ki bouke ka jwenn kanpo, yon peyi kote moun ka viv ak kè poze, men nou derefize koute.
13 And it will be to them [the] word of Yahweh command to [the] command command to [the] command line to [the] line line to [the] line a little there a little there so that they may go and they will stumble backwards and they will be broken and they will be ensnared and they will be captured.
Se poutèt sa, Seyè a pral pale ak nou, l'ap repete lèt apre lèt, liy apre liy, leson apre leson. Lè sa a, n'a pral bite, nou pral tonbe sou dèyè, nou pral kase pye nou, nou pral pran nan pèlen, y'ap fè nou prizonye.
14 Therefore hear [the] word of Yahweh O people of mockery O rulers of the people this who [are] in Jerusalem.
Se poutèt sa, nou menm bann awogan ki chita lavil Jerizalèm pou gouvènen pèp sa a, koute sa Seyè a di nou:
15 For you have said we have made a covenant with death and with Sheol we have made an agreement (a scourge *Q(K)*) overflowing if (it will pass by *Q(K)*) not it will come to us for we have made falsehood refuge our and in deception we have hidden ourselves. (Sheol )
-N'ap fè grandizè deske nou te pase kontra avèk lanmò, nou te siyen papye ak chèf peyi kote mò yo ye a. N'ap plede di lè malè a va rive li p'ap tonbe sou nou, paske avèk fòs manti nou jwenn kote pou n' kache, avèk fòs plan nou maske kò nou. (Sheol )
16 Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here I he has laid in Zion a stone a stone of testing a corner of preciousness of a foundation founded the [one who] trusts not he will make haste.
Se poutèt sa, koulye a, men sa Seyè a di: Gade! Se mwen menm menm k'ap mete yon fondasyon byen fèm, byen solid nan lavil Siyon an. Nan kwen fondasyon an, m'ap mete yon gwo wòch pyè byen chita. Sou li m'ap make: moun ki gen konfyans nan Bondye p'ap janm gen kè sote.
17 And I will make justice a measuring-line and righteousness a leveling tool and it will sweep away hail [the] refuge of falsehood and [the] shelter waters they will overflow.
Jistis, se va mèt k'ap sèvi pou mezire fondasyon an. Seriozite, se va nivo k'ap sèvi pou mete l' nivo. Men, gwo van lagrèl la pral kraze kachèt mantò yo. Dlo inondasyon an pral bwote kachkach nou yo pote ale.
18 And it will be annulled covenant your with death and agreement your with Sheol not it will stand a scourge overflowing if it will pass by and you will become for it a trampling place. (Sheol )
Li pral kraze kontra nou te pase avèk lanmò a. Li pral chire papye nou te siyen avèk chèf peyi kote mò yo ye a. Lè malè a vini, l'a kraze nou. (Sheol )
19 As often as passes by it it will take you for in the morning in the morning it will pass by in the day and in the night and it will be only terror to understand [the] message.
Malè a ap pase sou nou chak maten. N'a gen pou n' sipòte l' lajounen kou lannwit. Chak mesaj Bondye va fè yo konnen va ba yo sezisman.
20 For it is [too] short the bed for stretching oneself and the blanket it is narrow when wraps oneself up.
Jan pawòl la di a, n'ap tankou moun k'ap chache kouche sou yon kabann twò kout pou yo, anba yon lenn ki manke lajè.
21 For like [the] mountain of Perazim he will arise Yahweh like a valley in Gibeon he will rage to do deed his [is] strange deed his and to work work his [is] alien work his.
Paske Seyè a pral leve kanpe jan l' te fè l' sou mòn Perazim lan, li pral souke kò l' jan l' te fè l' nan plenn Gabawon an, pou l' fè sa li vle fè a, bagay nou pa ta janm kwè, pou l' fin fè travay li, travay nou pa ka konprann.
22 And therefore may not you show yourself a mocker lest they should become strong fetters your for complete destruction and [what] has been decided I have heard from with [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts on all the land.
Koulye a, piga nou pase pawòl mwen yo nan betiz pou yo pa mare nou nan kòd pi rèd toujou. Paske, Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a fè m' konnen li fin pran desizyon l' pou l' detwi tout peyi a. Li p'ap chanje lide.
23 Give ear and hear voice my pay attention and hear utterance my.
Pare zòrèy nou! Tande sa m'ap di nou! Koute byen pawòl k'ap soti nan bouch mwen!
24 ¿ All the day does he plow the plowman to sow does he loosen? and he may harrow? land his.
Yon moun k'ap travay tè p'ap janm pase tout tan l' ap raboure, ap kraze bit, ap pare tè pou plante.
25 ¿ Not if he has leveled surface its and does he scatter black cumin and cumin does he sprinkle? and does he put? wheat a row and barley an appointed [place] and spelt territory its.
Rive yon lè, lè li fin bat tè a, l'ap simen grenn tankou lanni ak kannèl. Apre sa, l'ap plante ble, pitimi ak lòj. Lèfini, sou lizyè jaden an li gen dwa simen lòt grenn tankou pwa chouk.
26 And he instructs him to judgment God his he teaches him.
Li konn sa pou l' fè, paske se Bondye menm ki moutre l' sa pou l' fè.
27 That not with threshing sledge it is threshed black cumin and a wheel of a cart over cumin it is turned for with staff it is beaten out black cumin and cumin with rod.
Yo pa janm sèvi ak woulo pou degrennen lanni osinon kannèl. Men, se avèk yon bout bwa yo bat pitimi ak pwa.
28 Bread it is crushed for not to perpetuity certainly anyone threshes it and he sets in motion [the] wheel of cart his and horses his not he crushes it.
Lè y'ap bat ble a pou degrennen l', yo pa bat li san rete. Yo konnen jan pou yo fè woulo a pase sou ble a san yo pa kraze grenn yo.
29 Also this from with Yahweh of hosts it has gone out he has made wonderful counsel he has made great sound wisdom.
Tout konesans sa a se nan Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a li soti. Plan travay li se bèl bagay. Li bay bon konsèy, li gen anpil bon konprann.
